Frozen Sewer Vent

I heard some gurgling in the sink after flushing the toilet. I went outside to check and it looks like the vents are frozen. I can see ice sticking up out of a couple of them. I was wondering if anyone has any solutions to this that don't require me to climb up on an icy roof, or should it be ok to leave it for a couple of days when we're supposed to get 50 weather on Thursday. Thanks!

Thanks for the post and others that replied. We showed up at our cabin in NW Ia on Sunday evening to the smell of sewer gas. Since we have been renovating it, there was on sink we didn't use as the plumber messed it up and it was leaking. While fixing it yesterday, I notice there was a lot of gas getting pushed out into the cabin. Shouldn't it be going out?

After I fixed it the toilet is now losing water.

Anyway, I'll be putting a sewer skewer in when it's safe to go on the roof. It's a 2 story with a 7/12 pitch and steel roof.
